Cedar Rapids, Ia, has population
of 10000 and not single open saloon.
There are, no doubt, places where in
toxicants are sold, but they are secret
places known only to the initiated. AT
the opening of the last term of Linn
county court, in which Cedar Rapids is
situated, there was not single prisoner
in the Jail and not one in the county
prison. and the police records show the
number of arrests TO have fallen off fifty
per cent. within the last six months. oil
since the law was strictly enforced. =

The decision of Justice Harlan of tho

a Iull dItenuauce IS earnestly desired.
The decision of Justice Harlan of tho
United States Supreme court
in regard to the $50
called" prohibition cases in Kansas
is Of the greatest Importance to the
friends of temperance wherever they
may be. 1t declares valid and consti-
tulional the prohibition laws OF Kansas
The opinion was ''long and elaborate, -"
and from it we clip the following:
"There is here no justification for
holding that the state under the guise
merely of police regulations is aiming
to deprive the citizen of his eonstitu-
tional rights; for we cannot shut out of
view the fact within the knowledge of
all. that the public health, the public
morals and the public safety, may be
endangered by the general use of intox-
icating drinks. Nor can we ignore the
fact, established by statistics accessible
to every one, that the disorder, pauper-
ism and crime prevalent in the country
are, IN large measure, directly trace
able to this evil. If, therefore, state
deems the absolute prohibition of the
manufacture and sale, within her limits
of intoxicating liquors, for other than
medical, scientific and manufacturing
purposes, to be necessary to the peace
and security Of society, the courts can
not without usurpiug legislative func-
tions, override the will of the people, as
thus expressed by their chosen repre-
sentatives.
with reference to the assertion that
the prohibition of the manufacture and
sale of liquor deprives liquor dealers of
their property without due pro-
cess of law, the court says,
that all property under our form
of government is subject to the obliga-
ton that it shall not be used so as to in
ljuriously affect the rights of the COM
munity and thereby become nuisance.
The state of Kansas had a right TO pro-
hibit the liquor traffic. 1t did not
thereby take away the property Of the
brewers. 1t simply abated nuisance.
The property is not taken away from its
Owners; they are only prohibited from
using it for a specific purpose, which
the Legislature declared to be injurious
to the community.

a NUISANCE.

That is the man who comes into
the ladies car smoking. You find
him on almost every railroad train.
He don't deliberately sit down
and smoke in the ladies car, but
he comes through it with a cigar or
worse 3 cigarette Of vile tobacco III
his mouth, and puffs away as
though the other occupants of the
car were hogs also.
Now there is no occasion for
such performance. Any person
with the faintest knowledge Of
what is due others, and the least
desire to give others their due,
would not do it. The business in
hand is scarcely SO urgent that it
could not wait until the completion
of the smoke, or if it were very
pressing the cigar or cigarette
could at least be removed from the
mouth, but the individual who
would be guilty Of such an act, has
no consideration for others, Meth
er has he any sense of what is
proper.
lie almost invariably, is pre-
enlinently cheeky individual
full of himself, greatly impressed
with his own Importance. He US
ually travels i'll the sleeper, wants
the best of everything, is loud
mouthed, and labors under the de-
fusion that people think that he
has been brought up to have the
best OF everything, when rs mat
ter OF fact, until by some misplaced
good luck, he got into some

obtained y situation as
drummer and had his expenses

cretion Of the commission. This
was considered as taking little in
terost in the matter, (and there
was some lac!, Of enthusiasm about

be Obtained at the White House
and tic exact words could not be

remarks of the president above

dispatch is unknown. The oc.
casion of the dispatch being given
to the public was on Aug. %, il

The words misrepresentation
and opposition are applied by the
president to the World, but the
World does not misreprcsent him
nor is it opposing him. In The
above case the dispatch was re
fused at tie White House, and the
remarks of the World were baseC
on what was reported as the dis
patch. If the report was not cor
rect, the president can thank him
self for it. There was no occasion
for secrecy. Why could not thu
real words be obtained? Simply
because Mr.. Cleveland has tina
